Hello All,
As we all know the seasons are changing and it will soon be time to cover up our bald heads. I have a problem. I have a very small head and have been unable to find any adult hats besides baseball caps that fit. Does any one have any suggestions?

Invent Yourself

Each of us has that right, that possibility, to invent ourselves daily. If a person does not invent herself, she will be invented. So, to be bodacious enough to invent ourselves is wise.

Gale Moorman said… - Hi Joye, I was diagnosed with alopecia at 10. I've had alopecia areata for a ton of years but the only thing that made the areata develop into totalis was the birth of my twin sons over 20 yrs. ago. It's a crazy thing. I have had many motivational get togethers for alopecians but want to accomplish gettng a larger crowd. I have stopped the get togethers for a while until Sept. and I will start them back and keep you on my list of people to contact.
